Fruit Infused Water



A refreshing and natural way to infuse your water this summer. Keep it simple with a your favorite herb and one or two of your favorite fruit and/or vegetable. As you can see my first attempt I went overboard. Place ingredients in a container and use a spatula to lightly press down on top. Add filtered water to your container and let it sit in the fridge for at least 2 hours. Leaving it in the fridge over night is even better! Mix and match your flavors this summer.

Homemade Waffle Tower With Fruit


Why not enjoy a healthy breakfast that does not consist of the typical egg and bacon? Homemade  waffles are stacked with kiwi, strawberry, blue berry, and fat free whipped topping.  I also made a delicious smoothie with fat free yogurt, skim milk, honey, and strawberries. You can try this with your favorite fruits and/or vegetables and trust me, you will never look at breakfast the same.

Bantu Knot Hair Do

This style was created by twisting bantu knots on washed hair. The only products used was my leave in conditioner by Kimmaytube and coconut oil. I wore my twists for one day which I would have never done in the past, but I wanted to make sure my twist would dry properly. The following day lead to this amazing style.

Happy 1 year anniversary to me! This has been such a rewarding year and I can't wait to embark on many more to come. They say when a girl cuts all her hair, she is making drastic changes in her life. Oh how true that statement is. This is a new me and I am so in love with I and I self.  It is a great feeling of empowerment and I am blessed.

Exotic Fruits


It has been 1 year since I started my natural journey to eat healthy. I must say it has been a very exciting journey as I discovered new and exotic foods I wouldn't have dared to try in the past. A trip to the heart of China Town lead to my encounter with these exotic fruits. The spiky fruit is a rambutan and the other is lychee. They both are very similar in taste and texture.
